SUMMARY:Whispers of History
DESCRIPTION:Women of the past were so often left unheard. Women who stood beside their husbands\, fathers\, brothers\, and sons — day after day\, season after season — shaping the very foundations we stand on today. Whittlesea’s origin story is told through the eyes of the women who lived it. Their labour\, their resilience\, their humour\, their grief\, their grit. Their stories are not footnotes to the district’s history; they are the history. \nJoin us for History Month at Whittlesea Library and meet local historians and authors Gwen Hawke and Maureen Doyle who will discuss their book Whispers of History: Pioneering Women of Whittlesea prior to 1945.
